We don't know for how long Cadillac plans to continue production of the current CTS as we're nearing closer and closer to the presentation of the new generation model, but for now, the wreath and crest brand has prepared two limited edition versions of the high-performance 556hp CTS-V series, named Silver Frost and Stealth Blue (the latter is offered on the CTS coupe as well).

Cadillac to Dial Back CTS Production as Brand-New ATS is Stealing Sales


If you build the right product, customers will come. The thing is, some of them may come from places you don't want them to. The Cadillac ATS compact sports saloon is still young but after its launch in September, sales of its slightly bigger sibling, the CTS, dipped a mighty 40 percent in October.

According to data from Edmunds, that’s no coincidence. The ATS might be intended as a direct BMW 3-Series rival yet the CTS is also one of the most cross-shopped models amongst its potential buyers.

Scoop: 2014 Cadillac CTS Sedan Filmed Racing Around the Nordschleife


There's no place like the Nürburgring Nordschleife when it comes to testing and honing the handling dynamics of a vehicle, something that even General Motors has long accepted.

According to the insiders, GM has given the green light for the development of a full size, rear-wheel drive luxury sedan that will sit atop of the range rivaling the Audi A8, BMW 7-Series, Jaguar XJ and Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

Spy Shots: 2014 Cadillac CTS Sedan Grows in Size


These are some of the best spy pictures of the next generation 2014 Cadillac CTS yet as GM's engineers have finally removed the black vinyl camouflage from the prototype models, a sign that we're getting closer to the official reveal of the premium sedan model.

That's not to say that we have a clear view of the new CTS, but by discarding the vinyl covers we can at least see the outline of the car and sample the latest interpretation of Cadillac's "Arts & Science" edgy design formula.

While the styling will be crucial for the third generation CTS, one of the most important things to know about the new car is that it will finally grow in size to compete directly against the BMW 5-Series, Audi A6, Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Lexus GS models instead of hovering between two categories.

Can the 2012 Cadillac CTS-V Match Up to the New 2013 BMW M5 Saloon? [w/Poll]


From the moment BMW decided to place the M badge on its 5-Series sedan back in the mid-1980s, the M5 immediately created its own niche in the executive saloon segment. In fact, it become so popular that many the Bavarian firm's rivals followed its example in the years that came after the original M5's launch.

Perhaps one of the more surprising challengers was GM's Cadillac CTS-V, the first generation of which was presented in 2004 before it was replaced by the current model in 2008.
